OFAC designated Ibrahim Jadhran pursuant to Executive Order (E.O.) 13726, “Blocking   Property and Suspending Entry Into the United States of Persons Contributing to the Situation in Libya,” for being the leader of an entity that has, or whose members have, engaged in planning, directing, or committing attacks against any Libyan state facility or installation (including oil facilities), against any air, land, or sea port in Libya, or against any foreign mission in Libya. In June 2018, militia forces under Jadhran’s command attacked and seized control of two oil export terminals in the Libya’s vital “oil crescent” region, which is the source of the majority of Libya’s oil exports. This was Jadhran’s most recent attempt to regain control of the “oil crescent” since 2016, when Jadhran's forces were previously ousted from the “oil crescent.”  Jadhran’s attacks have impacted Libyan oil exports since 2013, which has led to billions of dollars of lost revenue for the Libyan economy.  In 2014, Jadhran was responsible for the attempt of the vessel Morning Glory to load illicit crude oil from the port of el Sidra, which was later inspected by the United States Navy and returned to Libya. The United States’ action, any property, or interests in property, of Ibrahim Jadhran within U.S. jurisdiction are blocked, and U.S. persons are generally prohibited from engaging in transactions with him.  Additionally, the corresponding UN sanctions obligate all UN Member States to impose an asset freeze and travel ban.

Blocking Property, Suspending Entry

E.O. 13726. On April 19, 2016, the President, invoking the authority of, inter alia, IEEPA and the United Nations Participation Act (22 U.S.C. 287c) (UNPA), issued E.O. 13726. In E.O. 13726, the President expanded the scope of the national emergency declared in E.O. 13566, finding that the ongoing violence in Libya, human rights abuses, violations of the arms embargo imposed by United Nations Security Council Resolution 1970 (2011), and misappropriation of Libya's natural resources threatened the peace, security, stability, sovereignty, democratic transition, and territorial integrity of Libya, and thereby constituted an unusual and extraordinary threat to the national security and foreign policy of the United States.
